On Thursday 21 September 2006 12:44 pm, Bob Pawley <rjpawley@xxxxxxx> thus communicated: --> I am seeking wording for a procedure that will initiate a trigger only after another trigger has completed its function. In this case I want to drop a table that is created and used by the first trigger. --> --> Could someone point me to documentation? --> --> Bob Pawley According to the 7.4.6 docs: "If more than one trigger is defined for the same event on the same relation, the triggers will be fired in alphabetical order by trigger name. In the case of before triggers, the possibly-modified row returned by each trigger becomes the input to the next trigger. If any before trigger returns a NULL pointer, the operation is abandoned and subsequent triggers are not fired. " So, name the last trigger you want to fire such that it falls aphabetically behind the rest. -- Terry Tucker Turbo's IT Manager Turbo, division of Ozburn-Hessey Logistics 2251 Jesse Jewell Pkwy NE Gainesville, GA 30501 Tel: (336) 372-6812 Fax: (336) 372-6812 Cell: (336) 363-4719 terry@xxxxxxxx www.turbocorp.com
